Support our troops. This page has links to many many support organizations around the country. Consider helping one of them show our troops we remember them. http://www.americasupportsyou.mil/americasupportsyou/help.html
Regardless of whether you support the war going on or not, our countrymen, our friends, our family members are still a world away, with little contact from home. Let them know you care.
For those of you in other countries, I encourage you to look up resources to support your own country's troops, whether they are away fighting or not.
